High pitch and high volume repetitive

Any ideas for helping me with my daughter's challenging behaviour. The most anti-social is shouting at high pitch. She has always been repetitive, but now we have loud repetitive which is very difficult to cope with.

Hello Wakes

Thanks for posting. This must be very hard for you.

Does your daughter get any additional support? There may be people you are already in touch with you could help (social worker, teacher). Your GP may also be able to help and refer to you to local support.

Jofisher 's suggestions are great.

The Challenging Behaviour Foundation has lots of great advice on their website here too - challengingbehaviour.org.uk/

Please also contact our helpline to talk to one of our trained advisors on 0808 808 1111 (mencap.org.uk/advice-and-su....

Finally, we had an expert event about challenging behaviour here - healthunlocked.com/mencap/p... There is lots in there, but there be something that can help a little.

Best wishes

Sarah
